Hi, I came across this question in SkillAssert.com which is a mock test in our forum itself



The output is
In getStr
In static
In Main

But i thought that static initialization blocks run first. Can anyone please explain?

Static initializer and static block runs in the order they have been declared.

Since static initalizer is declared before static block it gets run first and then continues the static block.

Note: order not only matters for block but also including initializers like the one in the above program

I think you are correct, but have not used the usual terminology.That is a static declaration and initialization, which calls a static method.
What is next is a static initializer.
 
yeah, but ... what would PIE do? Especially concerning this tiny ad:
